    There is no shingle shortage, I live next to a storage area for Owen’s Corning and there’s literally millions of bundles on pallets at the facility.

      🙄Do you realize how many pallets it would take to hold millions of shingles?

    They will declare a shortage in order to up the prices.

      I definitely think that there's some unethical stuff going on in the roofing industry. Prices were going up prior to 2021, but usually only once a year. When Lord Biden declares that we won't use domestic oil and shuts down our pipelines, then petroleum prices skyrocket and everything that relies on it. Now prices go up 3 - 5 times a year.

    As an old lady, how would I ensure the right shingles are ordered and installed? If i were to raise the subject in beginning, would it possibly deter?

      You can ask the roofer to show you the order invoice from the shingle supplier and then ask him to show you a label from the shingle bundles that get delivered to your house.
